iconic

Type

property

Summary

Specifies whether a stack window is minimized.

Syntax

set the iconic of <stack> to {true | false}

Description

Use the iconic property to change a stack's appearance in order to make it take up less screen space.

Set a stack's iconic property to true to make the stack window take up less space. The way in which this is done depends on the platform :

  • On Mac OS systems, the window is collapsed to its title bar
  • On OS X systems, the window is collapsed to an icon in the Dock
  • On Unix systems, the window is iconified into a desktop icon
  • On Windows systems, the window is minimized to an icon in the task bar

If the user has collapsed, iconified, or minimized the stack, its iconic property reports true.
